Lash, the 23rd knight of the Black Empire, was looking at Kyle with an experienced gaze, currently full of authority and dignity. Gray eyes filled with spirit scanned the knights lined up. Even though he only had one eye, I could feel Kyle trembling.
Lash kept the incision open and waited for Kyle to speak. From now on it was time for hell. On unusually hot days, he would send his knights through high-intensity training. Every time that happened, someone had to be taken away to end the training.
It wasn’t something that could just be taken away. The driver who was taken away was sent to hellish training alone for a week starting the next day. So, you should never fall before anyone else. This was like a battle of will.
After scanning the tense articles, Kyle finally parted his tightly pursed lips. But at that moment, all the knights had to believe their eyes.
Kyle had disappeared. It didn’t even appear to disappear. All the knights had no choice but to freeze at the sight of Kyle disappearing as soon as they could blink.
The sound came from an unexpected place.
“road!”
‘road?!’
The knights’ gazes turned faster than Kyle’s. Where they turned their gaze, there was their savior coming towards the training ground. The corners of the knights’ mouths all trembled, but they soon got down with all their might.
Don’t laugh, don’t laugh. Let’s take care of ourselves.
They immediately killed their emotions, kept expressionless, and started ventriloquizing. Everything looked understated. The gaze was full of discipline, and the sound was so quiet that you couldn’t hear it even if you held your breath and listened. Nevertheless, the knights skillfully understood everything.
It was a group ventriloquism skill learned while dealing with Kyle.
“Aren’t you guys just looking at the wings too blatantly?”
“I don’t think that’s what you want to say.”
“Don’t laugh, please…” Do not laugh.”
“You guys, stop laughing. “You can see the corners of my mouth turning up!”
“Rod is… “Wow, you look pretty today too.”
“road… road… !”
“The Grand Duke is truly sincere. It wouldn’t be an ordinary effort to get it that neat… . “The previous kings let it become a magpie house.”
“It’s so pretty that it makes me roll my eyes…” . When will we ever see a feather like that in our lifetime? I didn’t even know there were wings like that… . If you touch it, you won’t have any wishes… “Ugh, I’m talking about dying.”
“You all know how many times heroes have been called out… .”
“… Looking at it, I think I’ll be called in today too. omg! “Aren’t we being called too?”
“Don’t be unlucky… Stop!”
“Come to think of it… “I heard that blacksmith Iobel is causing trouble these days.”
“Are you saying that friend can’t get out of the blacksmith shop even if he learns a skill? “I saw him glowing yesterday, saying he couldn’t see his wings alone.”
The eyes of about thirty knights rested on Sehyeon’s wings fluttering in the wind. As he moved into the shade, the tips of his feathers fluttered and he had to endure the tips of his ears turning bright red.
“Well, it looks like Rod’s immunity is still low… . Ah, why is it so hot and messy?”
“you… Do you want to die? Make it sink quickly! “If the heroes find out, we’re done, we’re done!”
“Even if your immunity increases… . Aren’t you too weak? “You should eat well.”
“Haha… . The wings are too soft… It feels like I was just born… . Is it because the species has changed less? ? “The Grand Duke should take good care of it.”
“… But you’re pretty no matter what you do.”
A long silence followed among the knights. Their eyes were still fixed on the white wings. The wings that had been fluttering were now quiet. It looked somewhat gentle. As they followed it up, the large wings compared to their skinny shoulders filled their field of vision.
The nicely curved wings were ridiculously elegant. Moreover, the soft feathers of the wings falling gently underneath made my legs feel weak.
The two heroes, Renshis and Kyle, were kneeling under the shade of a tree and laying out their outer clothes. It was as if he had even sold his face.
“Rod, please sit here. It is not good to stand. “Isn’t it hot too?”
“I understand, I understand. “Then let’s sit together, Kyle and Ren.”
Although the two heroes showed signs of reluctance, they steadily took their seats next to the Lord. It looked as if he had been waiting.
The knights all had to stick out their tongues in silence as they saw it occupying a small space due to its large size.
However, that too was soon buried in a startled look by a shadow that appeared out of nowhere. A shadow that seemed to have risen from the ground was standing close to the knights.
“Do the damn things, do the damn things. I came here to do something, but hey… ventriloquism? I draw because I have nothing else to do, ventriloquism? No, then I guess I won’t be able to hear it. Ah, I can hear it all! uh?! “I can hear everything, you burners.”
Confusion appeared on the knights’ faces as they clicked their tongues. Some people opened their eyes so wide that their veins stood out. How on earth should I accept the fact that a being whose presence I haven’t even felt is right around the corner?
The person who appeared before the knights was Kim Gap-jun, who is currently an instructor for foreigners. His hair was shaggy.
“And what the hell is so pretty about that bastard?! “Not only are you skinny and not worth looking at, but your eyes are all sprained?”
However, the knights soon faced the reality. Wools, the instructor in charge, is looking fiercely behind Kim Gap-jun.
He seemed to have already heard the whole story, as he crossed his arms and glanced at the articles menacingly.
That fact presented another hell to the knights.
“practice.”
A young horse echoed through the air with a crackling sound. As soon as those words were finished, the knights began to sprint across the training ground until they were out of breath.
Renshis looked at the scene with deep gaze beneath the shadows. When he turned his gaze, Uls and Kim Gap-jun, who were walking powerfully, were caught at the end of his field of vision.
“Uls, see you Rod.”
“Ah, Wools. Did you eat? “Let’s sit down too.”
“Yes, if that is what Lord wants.”
Ulce sat down in front of Sehyeon without even a single rejection. Concerned eyes passed by Uls and turned to the knights who were sprinting around the training grounds, but none of the heroes showed any concern about him.
It meant that he had no intention of seeing everyone.
In fact, the heroes here, including Renshis, had been listening to what they believed to be ventriloquism from the beginning. The only ones who didn’t hear that were their roadies.
“Hey, you son of a bitch. “Why are you here again when you’re not working?”
“Tuck your stomach in and talk, Mr. Kim Gap-jun. And have you forgotten that I’m free?”
“Ah, why is this guy so interested in other people’s boats! “You just have to eat it!”
“I’m eating well these days?”
“So are the faces of the heroes sitting next to you rotting right now?”
“Oh, yes. Okay, so Mr. Kim Gap-jun, can you please sit down as well? “It’s hot too.”
“You just sit back and relax.”
“I usually sit comfortably… . Oh, do you want to lose weight? Then say yes. Okay, okay. “Keep your frown straight, I don’t recommend it.”
A cool smile came into the eyes of the heroes. It was a different smile than when dealing with vassals. It felt like something that had been stuck was being released.
Everyone felt joy at his laughter and mood. The shade was cool, and even my sweat dried. Even the hand that brushed the blonde hair that was grazing my cheek behind my ear was so soft that I wanted to hold it.
“If the knights rest together… “It won’t work, right?”
“Yes, no. “They still lack training, so please understand, Lord.”

As Kyle was in charge of training the knights, the training results of the knights led to dramatic results. Accordingly, the Archduke granted him a privilege that even his instructor, Wools, could not be involved in. This meant that no one would be allowed to interfere with the entire training process.
This also applied to Rod. Therefore, the road could only provide a brief rest period, but it could not stop the training itself.
“Kyle, don’t do it to the point where the kids fall over. huh?”
“Yes, I always give proper training. Don’t worry. I wish Rod, more than me, wouldn’t be walking around in this weather. “What happens if I fall down?”
“it’s me… “You just have to cover it with your wings and go around.”
Unable to say no, everyone just glanced at the gentle wings resting under the shade. There’s no way she can withstand the sun when she’s that fragile.
The heroes’ firm mouth conveyed their firm determination. Everyone was carrying a cloak each to cover themselves.
Then, the moment someone looked towards the entrance to the training ground, the air changed. The faint figure running from the entrance to the training center soon became clear. Only then did Sehyeon’s eyes move there.
The one who ran at high speed was Euncheong. He might have been sweating on this hot day, but there wasn’t even a small drop of sweat on his face. His dazzling armor was also the same as usual.
“… “Euncheong?”
When the surprised eyes blinked unconsciously, Euncheong was already standing in front of Rod. His undisturbed breathing and calmly sunken eyes revealed goodwill. He looked completely different from when he was with the heroes.
“I stopped by because Rod said he was here.”
“ah… Euncheong, let’s sit down too. Come on.”
“yes.”
Ulce, who was sitting in front of Rod, had to be pushed to the side due to lack of seniority. As we all knelt down and sat side by side, a cool breeze passed through the hot air. Their Lord closed his eyes and fluttered his wings, as if he was in a good mood.
It was a moment when my heart was so full that my fingertips were shaking. An inexplicable thirst also arose. But the heroes just quietly followed the figure.
